\ very considerable portion Of the popula-
ton Of Savannah Is coiorcd What progress
tee colored people have made, and what they
have done toward securing homes since they
began to look out for themselves, can be
easily seen by visiting the city's suburbs
For years they have been quiet but persistent
purchasers of real estate. Their settlements,
Just without the municipal limits, almost en-
circle the city 1t must not be supposed that
all of their houses are mere shanties. Some
Of them are quite pretentious, and are sur
rounded by well kept gardens
These homes were not paid for i'll a year CT
two, but represent the proceeds of years Of
patient toll and the most rigid economy. On
some of them there are still mortgages, which
there is not much doubt will be paid in time.
1t is q fact worth noticing that very few
colored men fail TO meet the payment on their
homes, and when they do there is always a
good caGse for the failure. And there is an
other fact worth noticing. 1t is that they
pay their taxes willingly and return their
property above, rather than below. its market
value. They are not yet sufficiently civilized
to be tax dodgers. Gal News

Perhaps no man in public life in the
United States ever had SO strong a
personal following as Henry Clay. His
friends were everywhere, and they
were so numerous that he himself
never knew them half by name. When
the mill Boy of the Slashes" was the
candidate of the Wings for the Presi-
dency, IL became known that he had
overdrawn his bank account nc the
Maysyi.le Bank for considerable
sum. One day three gentlemen,
strangers TO President Scott Of that
institution, called at the bank and
asked Mr.. Scott how much Clay had
overdrawn He replied tersely thas
that was none of their business, and
that his bank was not in the habit of
telling strangers the private affairs of
its customers. The visitors said that
they had come 20 make the account
good, and that they had asked the
question that they might know how
much would be required of them.
That placed different phase on the
situation, and Mr.. Scott told them
that Mr.. Clay's account was overdrawn
TO an amount approximating $4,000.
The visitors opened their saddlebags
and Immediately paid over the amount.
Mr. Scott tried 10 find out who they
were, but up to the day of his death
he never knew who were the benefact-
ors of his customer. Mr. SCOTS son,
now a resident of Bloomington, ILL.,,
would be interested TO know who were
the riders who carried $4,000 in their
saddlebags to save the name of Henry
Clay, but no one has yet been able to
enlighten him. -B0Itimore american.

member Captain Kempf extended a
General invitation to all the comrades
70 visit the Adams He had previously
